list

(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

listDeğişkenlere bir dizi gibi atama yapar

Açıklama

list(mixed $değişken, mixed ...$değişkenler = ?): array

array() gibi bu da bir işlev değil bir dil oluşumudur. list() işlevi tek deyimde birden fazla değişkene atama yapmak için kullanılır. Dizgeler patlatılamaz ve list() ifadeleri tamamen boş olamaz.

Bilginize:

PHP 7.1.0 öncesinde, list() işlevi sadece sayısal dizilerde çalışır ve indislerin sıfırdan başladığı varsayılırdı.

Bağımsız Değişkenler

değişken

Değişken.

değişkenler

Diğer değişkenler.

Dönen Değerler

Atanan dizi döner.

Sürüm Bilgisi

Sürüm: Açıklama
7.3.0 Dizi bozmada gönderim atamaları için destek eklendi.
7.1.0 list() işlevine anahtarlar belirtilebiliyor. Bu, tamsayı olmayan veya sıralı olmayan anahtarlarla dizilerin yok edilmesini sağlar.

Örnekler

Örnek 1 - list() örnekleri

<?php

$veri
= array('kahve', 'uyku', 'kafein');

// Değişkenlerin tamamını listeleyelim
list($içecek, $neyi, $güç) = $veri;
echo
"$içecek $neyi kaçırır, çünkü içinde $güç vardır.\n";

// Bir kısmını listeleyelim
list($içecek, , $güç) = $veri;
echo
"$içecek $güç içerir.\n";

// Sadece üçüncü kalsın
list( , , $güç) = $veri;
echo
"Bana $güç lazım!\n";

// list() dizgelerle çalışmaz
list($bar) = "abcde";
var_dump($bar); // NULL
?>

Örnek 2 - list() kullanım örneği

<?php
$result
= $pdo->query("SELECT id, name FROM employees");
while (list(
$id, $name) = $result->fetch(PDO::FETCH_NUM)) {
echo
"id: $id, name: $name\n";
}
?>

Örnek 3 - İç içe list() kullanımı

<?php

list($a, list($b, $c)) = array(1, array(2, 3));

var_dump($a, $b, $c);

?>
int(1)
int(2)
int(3)

Örnek 4 - list() ve indis tanımlarının sırası

list() tarafından tüketilecek dizi indislerinin tanımlanma sırası konu dışıdır.

<?php
$foo
= array(2 => 'a', 'foo' => 'b', 0 => 'c');
$foo[1] = 'd';
list(
$x, $y, $z) = $foo;
var_dump($foo, $x, $y, $z);

Çıktısı aşağıdadır (elemanlar list() sözdiziminde yazıldıkları gibi sıralanmıştır):

array(4) {
  [2]=>
  string(1) "a"
  ["foo"]=>
  string(1) "b"
  [0]=>
  string(1) "c"
  [1]=>
  string(1) "d"
}
string(1) "c"
string(1) "d"
string(1) "a"

Örnek 5 - Anahtarlar ve list()

PHP 7.1.0 itibariyle, list() artık rasgele ifadeler halinde verilebilecek belirgin anahtarlar da içerebilir. Tamsayı ve dize anahtarlarının karıştırılmasına izin verilir; ancak, anahtarı olan ve olmayan öğeler karıştırılamaz.

<?php
$data
= [
[
"id" => 1, "name" => 'Tom'],
[
"id" => 2, "name" => 'Fred'],
];
foreach (
$data as ["id" => $id, "name" => $name]) {
echo
"id: $id, name: $name\n";
}
echo
PHP_EOL;
list(
1 => $second, 3 => $fourth) = [1, 2, 3, 4];
echo
"$second, $fourth\n";

Yukarıdaki örneğin çıktısı:

id: 1, name: Tom
id: 2, name: Fred

2, 4

Since PHP 7.1, keys can be specified

exemple :
<?php
$array
= ['locality' => 'Tunis', 'postal_code' => '1110'];

list(
'postal_code' => $zipCode, 'locality' => $locality) = $array;

print
$zipCode; // will output 1110
print $locality; // will output Tunis
?>

In PHP 7.1 we can do the following:

<?php
   
[$a, $b, $c] = ['a', 'b', 'c'];
?>

Before, we had to do:

<?php
   
list($a, $b, $c) = ['a', 'b''c'];
?>

The example showing that:

$info = array('kawa', 'brązowa', 'kofeina');
list($a[0], $a[1], $a[2]) = $info;
var_dump($a);

outputs:
array(3) {
[2]=>
string(8) "kofeina"
[1]=>
string(5) "brązowa"
[0]=>
string(6) "kawa"
}

One thing to note here is that if you define the array earlier, e.g.:
$a = [0, 0, 0];

the indexes will be kept in the correct order:

array(3) {
  [0]=>
  string(4) "kawa"
  [1]=>
  string(8) "brązowa"
  [2]=>
  string(7) "kofeina"
}

Thought that it was worth mentioning.

As noted, list() will give an error if the input array is too short. This can be avoided by array_merge()'ing in some default values. For example:

<?php
$parameter
= 'name';
list(
$a, $b ) = array_merge( explode( '=', $parameter ), array( true ) );
?>

However, you will have to array_merge with an array long enough to ensure there are enough elements (if $parameter is empty, the code above would still error).

An alternate approach would be to use array_pad on the array to ensure its length (if all the defaults you need to add are the same).

<?php
    $parameter
= 'bob-12345';
    list(
$name, $id, $fav_color, $age ) = array_pad( explode( '-', $parameter ), 4, '' );
   
var_dump($name, $id, $fav_color, $age);
/* outputs
string(3) "bob"
string(5) "12345"
string(0) ""
string(0) ""
*/
?>

The example states the following:
<?php
// list() doesn't work with strings
list($bar) = "abcde";
var_dump($bar);
// output: NULL
?>

If the string is in a variable however, it seems using list() will treat the string as an array:
<?php
$string
= "abcde";
list(
$foo) = $string;
var_dump($foo);
// output: string(1) "a"
?>

list() can be used with foreach

<?php
$array
= [[1, 2], [3, 4], [5, 6]];

foreach(
$array as list($odd, $even)){
    echo
"$odd is odd; $even is even", PHP_EOL;
}
?>

The output:
===
1 is odd; 2 is even
3 is odd; 4 is even
5 is odd; 6 is even

The list construct seems to look for a sequential list of indexes rather taking elements in sequence. What that obscure statement means is that if you unset an element, list will not simply jump to the next element and assign that to the variable but will treat the missing element as a null or empty variable:

    $test = array("a","b","c","d");
    unset($test[1]);
    list($a,$b,$c)=$test;
    print "\$a='$a' \$b='$b' \$c='$c'<BR>";

results in:
$a='a' $b='' $c='c'

not:
$a='a' $b='c' $c='d'

The list() definition won't throw an error if your array is longer then defined list.
<?php

list($a, $b, $c) = array("a", "b", "c", "d");

var_dump($a); // a
var_dump($b); // b
var_dump($c); // c
?>

Don't miss simple array pattern matching since php 7

<?php

[$a] = ['hello!'];
var_dump($a); // 'hello!'

$arr = [4 => 50];
[
4 => $fifty] = $arr;
var_dump($fifty); // 50

$multidimensionalArray = [['id' => 15, 'email' => 'diyor024@gmail.com']];
[[
'id'  => $id, 'email' => $email]] = $multidimensionalArray;
var_dump($id, $email); // 15 diyor024@gmail.com

It can be convenient to specify a default value in case an element is missing in the list. You can use operator + for this:

<?php
$someArray
= ['color' => 'orange'];
[
'color' => $color, 'size' => $size] = $someArray + ['color' => null, 'size' => null];
?>

This will avoid the warning `Undefined array key "size"` you would encounter otherwise.

Setting it like <?php list($var1,$varN) = null ?> does _not_ raise an E_NOTICE (or other error) and afaics effectively equals an https://php.net/function.unset of $var1,$varN.

I note this as contrasting with the fact that PHP triggers an E_NOTICE about "Undefined offset" "if there aren't enough array elements to fill the list()", as attow documented for https://php.net/control-structures.foreach#control-structures.foreach.list and here only noted in https://php.net/function.list#122951 by Mardaneus.

For completeness, a bash(1) (v5.0 or 4.3 on macos10.13) cli test producing the same result for all my PHP-versions (installed via macports.org) follows. It's also tested with php7.3 using bash5.0 on Debian10:
bash --noprofile --norc -c 'for php in php{{53..56},{70..73}};do for literal in "array()" null;do echo -n $php …=$literal:&&$php -n -d error_reporting=E_ALL -r "var_dump(list(\$var)=$literal);";done;done'

# Above produces the same result pairs per version from:
php53 …=array():
Notice: Undefined offset: 0 in Command line code on line 1
array(0) {
}
# ... to:
php73 …=null:NULL

For PHP 7.1 on, the documentation states that integer and string keys can be mixed, but that elements with and without keys cannot. Here is an example, using data from getimagesize() with mixed keys:

<?php
    $data
=[
       
0=> 160,
       
1 => 120,
       
2 => 2,
       
3 => 'width="160" height="120"',
       
'mime' => 'image/jpeg'
   
];
    list(
0=>$width,1=>$height,2=>$type,3=>$dimensions,'mime'=>$mime)=$data;
?>

Here, the numeric keys also need to be specified, as if the whole array is treated as an associative array.

As noted elsewhere, the list() operator can be written in array format:

<?php
   
[0=>$width,1=>$height,2=>$type,3=>$dimensions,'mime'=>$mime]=$data;
?>

This is something I haven't seen in documentation.

Since PHP 7.1, you can use short-hand list unpacking using square brackets, just like short-hand array declaration:

<?php

$foo
= ['a', 'b', 'c'];

// short-hand array definition
[$a, $b, $c] = $foo;
echo
$a; // displays "a"

// it's same like:
list($x, $y, $z) = $foo;
echo
$x; // displays "a"

?>

Since 7.1.0, you can use an array directly without list():

<?php
[$test, $test2] = explode(",", "hello, world");
echo
$test . $test2; // hello, world
?>

From PHP Version 7.1 you can specify keys in list(), or its new shorthand [] syntax. This enables destructuring of arrays with non-integer or non-sequential keys.

<?php
$data
= [
    [
"id" => 1, "name" => 'Tom'],
    [
"id" => 2, "name" => 'Fred'],
];

// list() style
list("id" => $id1, "name" => $name1) = $data[0];

// [] style
["id" => $id1, "name" => $name1] = $data[0];

// list() style
foreach ($data as list("id" => $id, "name" => $name)) {
   
// logic here with $id and $name
}

// [] style
foreach ($data as ["id" => $id, "name" => $name]) {
   
// logic here with $id and $name
}

a simple example of use to swap two variables :

$a = 'hello';
$b = 'world';

list($a, $b) = [$b, $a];

echo $a . ' ' . $b; //display "world hello"

another example :

function getPosition($x, $y, $z)
{
   // ... some operations like $x++...
   return [$x, $y, $z];
}

list($x, $y, $z) = getPosition($x ,$y, $z);

Since PHP 7.1 the [] may now be used as an alternative to the existing list() syntax:

<?php
[$number, $message] = explode('|', '123|Hello World!');

If you want use the undefined behaviour as you might expect it e.g. if you want:

  $b = ['a','b']; list($a, $b) = $b;

to result in $a=='a' and $b=='b', then you can just cast $b to an array (even although it already is) to create a copy. e.g.

  $b = ['a','b']; list($a, $b) = (array)$b;

and get the expected results.

UNDOCUMENTED BEHAVIOR:

    list($a,$b,$c) = null;

in fact works like:

    $a = null; $b = null; $c = null;

...So correspondingly:

    list($rows[]) = null;

Will increment count($rows), just as if you had executed $rows[] = null;

Watch out for this (for example) when retrieving entire tables from a database, e.g.

    while (list($rows[]) = $mysqlresult->fetch_row());

This will leave an extra 'null' entry as the last element of $rows.

Unless you specify keys when using list() it expects the array being fed into it to start at 0.

So having the following code will result in a notice level warning "Undefined offset: 0" and variables not filling as expected

<?php
list($c1, $c2, $c3) = array [1 =>'a', 2 => 'b', 3 => 'c'];

var_dump($c1); // NULL
var_dump($c2); // string(1) "a"
var_dump($c3); // string(1) "b"

?>
